This book offers a descriptive table of contents, which can be used as a great and quick reference later. It provides helpful tools--a worksheet to copy and reuse, for example--that crocheters can utilize to determine what their project will look like. There are numerous options to choose from: body styles, tails, horns, clothing, and more. Owing to the tighter and numerous types of stitches used, this title is best for crocheters who have already completed a few beginner projects. Basic knowledge of sewing would also be useful for attaching pieces. The author includes links to a few video tutorials for some of the more intricate techniques.
